Sweeps

I was watching tv last night and noticed how many idiotic shows are on now. I generally give most new formats a chance, although I can only stand to watch reality-type competition shows after recording them. I even record sports to skip through the commentary by increasingly inane announcers. I've found myself skipping through Mythbusters episodes just to get to whether the myth is confirmed or busted (or, perhaps, to see the explosion at the end).
But, there are a few shows that I can't stand at all, and hate that they are so popular:

Glee
Dancing with the Stars
Survivor
The Biggest Loser
Survivor
Extreme Makeover Home Edition
The Sing-Off

I laugh at shows all the time if they are not credible, or if there is a silly factual mistake, but I realize nobody's perfect. For some reason, I can't get past the above shows, despite trying more than once, to watch an episode. There are shows I dislike but haven't watched, but I didn't include those. I don't want to offend anyone specifically that loves one of the above shows, but I just had to put in writing that I hate them. I think they are stupid in premise and/or execution.

I enjoy home improvement shows that actually show you how to do something, even if that's not the focus of the show. I like comedies of almost every kind. I like action shows, if the premise isn't too ridiculous (Once Upon a Time is losing me), and I even tolerate a fantasy story if the plot is good or has a classic good over evil theme. (I like the Harry Potter series, and Lost, though I dislike the obsession fantasy brings.) I'm a sucker for dinosaur shows if the dinosaurs aren't obviously made of paper or something.

Also, I love Antiques Roadshow. I can't explain why, but I could watch episode after episode of that show.
